We are requesting $24,000 to support to the operation of our Adult Family Home program. ON is committed to enhancing community diversity and to providing affordable and supportive housing to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Olympic Neighbors is a 501(c)3 that provides adults with IDD in Jefferson County safe, affordable housing and 24-hour staff support. We operate the only residential home of this kind in the county. There are over 14,000 adults with IDD living with an aging parent across the state and at least 100 in our community alone. As parents age and can no longer care for their disabled adult children, the need for more affordable and supportive housing becomes critical. Our model is cost- effective, inclusive, offers a good quality of life and helps one the most vulnerable populations avoid homelessness or institutionalization. We hope to expand our services over time. While still in the preliminary phase, ON is in discussions to build a home on land in Port Hadlock. We are creating the administrative infrastructure to grow. Having more homes leads to economies of scale - allowing ON to serve more people without significant increase to fundraising needs. th Washington is ranked 39 in the Nation for funding IDD housing services. State funds cover 65% of costs and we fundraise the additional amount. Olympic Neighbors is successful in meeting financial goals each year through grants, fundraising events and individual donations. The State has approved an unprecedented 30% rate increase over the next two fiscal years. Your support would allow us to cover rent, utilities and groceries until that additional funding comes in. We look forward to submitting a full request or answering additional questions.
